Lehigh County, Pennsylvania

Yes — Lehigh County accepts electronic recording. Deeds, mortgages, satisfactions, and other notarized real estate documents can be submitted digitally to the Recorder of Deeds's office in Allentown through approved e-recording channels instead of mailing paper originals, which typically cuts recording turnaround from days to hours.

Lehigh County is home to about 385,655 residents (U.S. Census Bureau, 2024 estimate), ranking 10th by population among the 67 Pennsylvania jurisdictions in this directory. Its population has grown about 3.0% since 2020. Typical home values in the county are around $365,000 (Zillow Home Value Index, May 2026), so promptly and correctly recorded deeds and liens matter for buyers, sellers, and lenders here.

Pennsylvania real estate documents are recorded with the county Recorder of Deeds; in some counties the office is combined with other row offices under a Clerk of Records.

For remote online notarization (RON), e-recording eligibility means the entire transaction can stay digital: sign and notarize online with Notaron, then submit the notarized document electronically for recording — no printing, shipping, or wet-ink originals. Title companies, lenders, and signing services use this combination to close and record the same day.
